Discounting and Digit Ratio: Low 2D:4D Predicts Patience for a Sample of Females
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018 Inter-temporal trade-offs are ubiquitous in human decision making. We study the relationship between preferences over such trade-offs and the ratio of the second digit to that of the forth (2D:4D), a marker for pre-natal exposure to sex hormones ...

Critical Discount Factor Values in Discounted Supergames [PDF]

We solve the smallest discount factor value for which the players obtain all the feasible and individually rational payoffs as equilibrium payoffs. We show that the critical discount factor values are not that high in many games and they generally depend on how large the ...
